Learning electronics using Snap Circuits is, of course, not the same as doing so whilst getting your hands dirty in a real workshop, but it could be a bit of fun, and it may be the closest some blind folk with no past electronics experience, or who lack the dedicated support of sighted electronics friends, may ever get to messing about with electronics.
#IPAD APP SNAP CIRCUITS MANUALS#
The manuals are fairly accessible with a screen reader insofar as the text goes,īut a screen reader will not provide access to the circuit diagrams themselves. The manuals provide an introduction to the Snap Circuits concept, a description of every component included with the kit, and a circuit diagram showing how each project should be constructed together with a short narrative for each project which provides some explanation.
#IPAD APP SNAP CIRCUITS PDF#
The manuals are available for download from the manufacturer’s website in pdf format. Each kit is supplied with a plastic base onto which projects can be built to make it easier.
No tools or soldering are required for any of the projects. With the SC500 you get further components and you can also build an FM radio. Three of the projects which you can build with the SC-300 set are of particular interest: they include a Morse code generator, and a couple of AM radios. Parts include different coloured LEDs, a photo sensitive cell, fixed resistors of different values, variable resisters, capacitors, lamps, switches, a speaker, microphone, antenna coil, a motor and fan blade, transistors, and various integrated circuit components such as RF and audio amplifiers and sound generators, as well as connectors and jump leads, and of course, a battery holder. Includes all the parts necessary to build 300 projects. ®=OTQ=/snap_circuits®_300-in-1_with_computer_interface=MzU3 (Please note, depending on your browser, you may need to Copy and Paste this link)
One of the mid range sets is called Snap Circuits SC-300. Various sets are available which range in complexity from a set enabling you to build 100 fairly simple circuits, up to a set enabling you to build 750 circuits some of which are fairly complex.
Each set contains everything you need in order to build a number of circuits. Qualifying intermediate project with relatively little support. Whilst looking at these, it struck me that they could also be an excellent way of introducing blind amateurs to the subject of electronics, and perhaps, even, in enabling them to complete a It’s a product made by Elenco intended to be a fun and educational way of teaching children from 8 to 17 years about electronics. I recently came across something called Snap Circuits.
